This blog is more than an account of Near Death Experiences. It ponders in detail the tough questions of life. Who are you, and why are you here in this physical world? What happens when you die, and is there a judgment? However, most anything could appear here. This is not a news blog, archived posts are just as relevant as new posts.

It happened in sixth grade. I was sitting at my desk in English class when it started to snow: big flakes. My English teacher walked over to a window and raised it. She reached out and caught some snowflakes on her sweater.
“Look! Look!” She said: “Did you know snowflakes are really ice crystals.” “The crystals start by forming small hexagonal shapes, and branches sprout from the six corners as the crystals grow.” “No two crystals are exactly alike.”
There arose a loud rumble as the entire class popped from their desks and ran to the windows. Soon all windows were open, with a dozen arms reaching out to catch snowflakes.
Seated close to a window, I was quick to catch the flakes and study them. The teacher was right about the diverse shapes of the snowflakes. It was amazing how unique and beautiful they appeared. As I looked in wonder at the tiny ice sculptures questions begin flooding into my thoughts. How, and where are they created, why are they so fragile? When I became older learning about snowflakes was often on my mind. I read all the available material I could find. I never lost my fascination for them.
In college I studied people, their psychology, religion, politics, and philosophy. People are unique, beautiful and fragile like the flakes, with no two exactly alike. Our world is made up of endless diversity. We truly live in a classroom of infinite proportions.
That English teacher sparked my curiosity as a child, and it lasted a lifetime. The more knowledge I acquired about diverse religions, cultures, and societies, the more I became transformed. I became myself. No images to maintain; no acting to exhibit; no list of achievements and acquisitions. I became humbled, not by knowledge acquired, rather by the amount unknown.
Embracing diversity can be a little scary in the beginning. But persistence will soon overcome the routines of past acculturation. Knowledge of others is your path to self-knowledge; your path to self-confidence; and your path to freedom from the confines, and conflicts of diverse thought processes. Embrace the diversity of others, learn from them. Share and coexist, you will be blessed.

I can only say THANK YOU Leroy, for being the special loving soul that you are, and I mean this in regards to everything, but especially to what you are doing for those in need, and for being here amongst us.
When ever I think of you, visit your site, or hear from you, it brings peace and warm feelings and upliftment to my spirit, and I feel so very blessed to find a spot of comfort….so it’s NICE, a gift, probably a sort of agreement we have had before agreeing to this trek here.
Anyways, I am sure you give the same connection to many others, and I just want you to know, so that you know you make a difference, your kind connection encourages me on, so that I might help another, rippling out in our circle of love.
So glad all is well with you. Please keep taking good care of yourself.
I love you my dear friend. Thank you so much for your love and light.

I did something a little spontaneous this morning. I tried to do some affirmations a little different. Kinda like….how would the Holy Spirit talk to me.
Example…………I always come out on top. I make good decisions and am in tune with my inner voice. I have overcome much guilt and have forgiven myself. I go from thought to thought easily and am comforted by the knowledge I am guided and blessed. I feel the ONE who walks with me and draw on HIS strength when I am in need.
Things become easier as I relax and trust myself. I am a good person. I have talents. I am intellegent. I forgive myself easily when I make a mistake in thought and just continue with my peace as before. I am learning to love myself and my choices. I am learning to be grateful for and love my mistakes and error prone decisions. I can turn back time when I forgive because it never happened in God’s mind to begin with.
I have all the time I need because I am eternal and have the ability to heal anything with God’s help. I am powerful because God created me powerful and is always with me. I accept the Holy Spirit’s help in thinking loving thoughts. I accept God’s bounty and comfort. There is no greater gift than God’s peace, and I have it. All things are secondary to Love.
If I have Love I have everything. I am invincible and eternal but I accept my changing body given me for a learning purpose. I accept my decision to come here and love myself for being brave enough to do it. I can hear God’s voice if I listen. I can feel God’s embrace if I stand still. I can accept God’s love and forgiveness if I close my eyes and become one with Him.
I am an extension of God. I have a high calling. I am a healer. My life is blessed. I have only one enemy, myself, and I know how to forgive myself and change. Love trumps all pain, death, illusion, sadness and time bound ideas. More and more love is the way of the Universe.
Love is infinite so it never stops multiplying………………..
